Responding to a Channel 2 news report that the US is soon to present “regional normalization” Middle East peace plan, a senior US administration official tells The Times of Israel: “It would be more newsworthy if we weren’t working towards an enduring peace. We are engaged in a productive dialogue with all relevant parties about an enduring peace deal but are not going to put an artificial deadline on anything. We have no imminent plans beyond continuing our conversations. As we have always said, our job is to facilitate a deal that works for both the Israelis and Palestinians, not to impose anything on them.”
